End of Summer
>> Wednesday, September 8, 2010
So sorry I stepped away for so long. The wrapping up of summer and the start of everyday school for my daughter kind of left me in a time warp. There has been a flurry of organizing going on so that the morning routine runs smoothly. My oldest started kindergarten a couple of weeks ago, we did preschool a few mornings a week the last few years but this is still a big step. 5 days a week, lots of kids, new teacher, a big school, a longer drive. Just as things were getting really fun with her off she goes to school :)
I find that the longer I go between posts the harder it is to get back in the routine of it all. So although I don't have pictures to brighten this space up or anything finished to share I just needed to post a small hello. I hope all is well with all of you and now that I am back in the swing I'm catching up with all your stories. Hopefully I'll have something finished by this weekend to share.

I'm w/ you, my oldest started kindergarten this year, and I feel like I'm still trying to find the groove :) Maybe by Jan?
My daughter started high school this week - high school - and I STILL am caught off guard every single year by just how hard the first week ends up being. Every year.
And somehow I forget that she needs new soccer cleats, too.
I know how you feel - it's true, the longer I don't post, the harder it is to get back into it... Well, looking forward to your next post!
Good to hear from you. Kids do grow up so quickly! My adult son recently visited from New Mexico. How I wish he lived closer!!! I'm behind on my blog too....seems it's the season. Take care -
The start of the school year is so hard! My daughter started grade 1 yesterday and my son grade 5. Exciting but stressful also. Good luck and take care!
It's funny how life evolves into a different routines at different times. Good to hear from you.
That is a big step! It must be hard to let go and see them go off into the big world but rewarding too. I hope she has a wonderful year and has a nice teacher!
Looking forward to seeing what you have been working on :)
Whew...that just made me very tired. You are so excused from being away from us so long. :)
Glad you back, try not to stay away so long.
Sending your oldest off to 'big kid school' the first time is an adjustment. Here, Kindergarten is only 3 days a week, so I made my adjustment last year with first grade. I always hate when summer ends.
we're getting into the routine of school as well. I can remember back to Spencer going to 1/2 day Kindergarten...I was out of sorts for what seemed like months! so happy you stop by and say hello! thinking of you...
the beginning of school is always a busy time...so is the end...and come to think of it, the middle seems busy too. You'll hit your stride though and the days will fall right into place. Have a great weekend.
I'm just coming back from being away too. I'm still trying to catch up with everyone! Welcome back!
